Future plans for NPED - Reply

The quick answer is, no more enhancements are planned.

NPED is founded on 20 year old technology.  At that time I had a computer with a 20 Megabyte Disk drive and DOS. I consider the design at that time to be a success as my data base has 340 birds in a 100K data base.   The technology used to write the program for a  16 bit computer and will not support the programs technologies which would allow be to include things like imbedded COI computations.  I have no plans for the expansion of the freeware pedigree programs.  In NPED I did provide textdump.exe which provides a file of basic animal information.  This file could be used by other software vendors to load their data bases.

The reports and data files in NPED are the same ones used in PED.  There have been no reported bugs in either the database, screens, or reports in PED.  If bugs are found in NPED put an entry in my guest book, on my home page, describing the problem and include your e-mail address.  I use this program for my birds and all bugs will be addressed.
